Inking with embossing folders

Hi crafty peeps,Hope you all are doing fine. This month's challenge is embossing - could be dry embossing or wet embossing. Here I am sharing with you a technique of coloring along with embossing. These are what I used

An embossing folder when opened up has two parts. I have inked the side which has the raised area between the designs.

I then placed my card stock very carefully in between the folders and to avoid any shift of the card stock, I secured the sides using a scotch tape.

I then embossed it on my machine. And voila, this is how my card stock looked. Its got the light blue color of my ink pad on the areas that are debossed. I immediately washed my embossing folder.

And I quickly ran some distress inks on the sides and stuck it on a card stock - added a little bow.
